Tuscany End User Sample Testing

Initial Setup

Most of the following only needs to be done once unless noted otherwise.

Follow the steps to build Tuscany core from either the samples readme or the more comprehensive instructions in the Getting Involved with Apache Tuscany page. This step needs to be done when ever you have new source to test.
Change directory to java/testing/tomcat directory.
Download Tomcat Core 5.5.xx zip for Windows or tar.gz for Linux from Apache Tomcat.
You may have to edit build.xml to change the property tuscany.acceptance.tomcat.version to match the xx to the specific version that you downloaded.
During the build Maven references the dependency jsr173 jar which is not in any maven 2.0 repository to resolve this you need to add it to your local Maven repository by :

Downloading the latest binary Apache XML Bean distribution ( xmlbeans-current.zip , xmlbeans-current.tgz) unpack and jsr173_1.0_api.jar should be in the lib directory.
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=jsr173_api.jar -DgroupId=javax.xml -DartifactId=jsr173 -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar

Running

In the java/testing/tomcat directory run maven:
mvn

Explanation

Maven does the following:

Unpacks the Tomcat distribution into the target directory to ensure a pristine environment.
It adds the appropriate Tuscany and it dependencies jars into Tomcat (for more details)
Does the necessary changes to Tomcat's configuration as required. (for more details)
Deploys Tuscany's sample war files into Tomcat.
Starts Tomcat (You should see another window running Tomcat)
Begins running HTML unit tests that should closely match running the samples as a user would.

If all goes well at the end you should see:
